uuuh, I think that is not a USB device...

I guess this is just straight up UART, goes to a ESP32 without any IC inbetween

Sometimes I think James Cameron mostly makes movies to fund interesting science.
Avatar: Fire and Ash is not a movie I have any big desire to watch but the technology Weta developed for this is absolutely incredible. Huge step forward for generalized fluid simulations.

Also one of the few high end BLE parts that are still coming in QFN (normal QFN, not the weird QFN from nRF52 times).
While most wearable want WCLSP, for more normal stuff QFN is great to have as cheaper to implement option if you don't want to go with a module.
High potential for new favourite MCU
UV printer finally arrived.
Wanted a test print with crisp graphics, so why not bootleg Heated Rivalry Kitchen magnet

Remember when JLC used to put a dumb new goodie into their packages every other week?
I still have a few JLC nail clippers somewhere.

You can't do this with just a tape measure or yard stick! I love my Zollstock.
